After Visiting Artist Valerie Mann gave an introduction in how to use
watercolor and showed us some techniques, we have begun to build on that
interaction and experience. We projected images of simple Michigan landscapes (city and land)–working
on four at once, we changed frames as the work became too wet. The students are
learning to work in a series and are developing some proficiency with the
medium. They will have the opportunity to use some of these new skills on their
self-portrait works.
